Course Description: This course is for students that have completed welding 1. This class will consist of designing and building projects in the welding lab. This will consist of a full design, plan and construction of a project. Course number: 2051
Course number: 2050
Course Name: Welding 1
Teacher: Weaver
Grade level: 10, 11, 12
Term availability: year
Course Description: In Welding 1 the students will learn the safety needed when working in a welding shop, and dealing with the various set ups for processes such as oxy acetylene welding, brazing, soldering, arc welding as well as wire feed welding. Students will also learn to use an O-A torch as well as a plasma cutter. The students will have to demonstrate and be graded on specific kinds of welds such as vertical, lap, and butt and inside – outside seam welds. This class will be focused on safety as well as the correct processes involved with each method of cutting or welding. This year the school has provided a spool gun, which will enable the students to get some experience with welding aluminum.
In the second semester the students will design and build projects demonstrating the correct procedures learned in the first semester. They will be required to design and finish their projects in classroom and lab.

COURSE DESCRIPTION:
In Welding I the students will learn the safety needed when working in a welding shop, and dealing with the various set ups for processes such as oxy acetylene welding, brazing, soldering, arc welding, MIG welding, and TIG welding. Students will also learn to use an O-A torch as well as a plasma cutter. The students will have to demonstrate and be graded on specific kinds of welds such as vertical, lap, butt and inside – outside seam welds. This class will be focused on safety as well as the correct processes involved with each method of cutting or welding. The students will get opportunities to weld aluminum and possibly stainless steel. The school also offers a CNC plasma table for use in building projects.
In the second semester the students will design and build projects demonstrating the correct procedures studied during the first semester. They will be required to design and finish their projects in classroom and lab.
METHOD OF INSTRUCTION:
Classroom lecture and discussion [small groups and individual]
Instructor shop demonstrations

High School Auto Mechanics
Course Description:
This course will introduce students to the various systems in the field of automotive technology. The areas in the course include:
¬ Shop safety
¬ Basic electrical
¬ Ignition systems
¬ Engine rebuilding
Instructional Philosophy:
Students will be expected to meet all goals, follow instruction and be able to demonstrate their understanding of the underlying concepts. The instruction will be a combination of classroom and shop activities. Students will work both independently and in teams to complete required tasks. The instruction delivery will be a combination of lecture, discussion, demonstration and hands on work experience. Assignments will require students to draw upon academic skills in mathematics science and language. Student assessment will be based on participation, completion of task skill demonstration and test of students’ knowledge of important concepts and skills. Attendance and punctuality will be component of the students’ grade.
Course Goals:
The students will:
¬ Follow safety procedures and properly use tools and equipment needed to perform necessary repairs.
¬ Identify, diagnose, and repair components of the engine block.
¬ Be able to read and comprehend information from technical manuscripts and data.
